Why choose IONOS over a free eCommerce website?
Online commerce is big business, and there are plenty of services that let you create a free online store. What's not included in "free" products is hosting, a domain and professional email.
Free online shops might be fine for developers who know which apps to install and how to minimise the additional costs that can arise. However, if you've got limited tech know-how, you could end up paying much more than you thought.
For a small monthly fee, the eCommerce Website Builder from IONOS offers you a professional store with all the tools you need to get online fast. In addition to secure hosting and your own free domain for one year, you'll receive extensive options to customise the design and functionality of your shop.
You'll also get additional features like multiple payment methods and a shipping wizard, leaving you with a high-quality online shop that’s sure to satisfy your customers. And best of all, you can try it out for free for one month.
Integration with the most popular marketplaces
The IONOS eCommerce packages equip you for the latest online shopping trends and habits, helping you reach your target audience. At the same time, one thing hasn’t changed, and that's how vital it is to have a presence on the most popular online marketplaces.
Our platform syncs and integrates your online shop with Amazon and eBay, as well as price comparison portals such as Google Shopping.
Your online store will also meet the growing demand for [[https://www.ionos.co.uk/digitalguide/online-marketing/online-sales/social-commerce/|social commerce]] thanks to smooth integration with a Facebook Store and Instagram Shopping.

Domain and mailboxes
Free domain for 1 year and email matching your URL
Using free eCommerce websites in the UK usually means not having your own domain. It's different with IONOS. Your domain is free for the first year of your MyWebsite eCommerce contract and you can choose from the following free domain extensions: .co.uk, .uk, .com, .net, .org, .info, .me, .biz, .online.When you build an online shop, customer communication is critical, so having email matching your domain is just another perk that comes for free with IONOS – and it's something that can cost a fortune with free providers.
